is it really bad to be attracted to older people if your young?

Answer 1

There is nothing wrong with being attracted to older if you are younger and nothing wrong with being attracted to younger if you are older. The problem is when older and really young, under 18, have sex because the younger will see it as more than sex usually and this allows the older to take advantage of the younger.

Answer 2

Depends how much older and why you are attracted to them. If you are 16 and you like 40 yearl old men, that's kind of sick. Also, if you are attracted to older men because you are looking for a father figure, or because you can't support yourself financially by yourself, that's not so good either.

Answer 3

I hope not.
I am 22 and my husband is 36.
What really matters is the attraction and the connection. Now, if you are under 18...I wouldn't try to date anyone over 17, becuase of the laws these days. Good luck sweetie!

Answer 4

if you are 15 and they are 5, 10, 15 years older than you, yes.

Answer 5

I've always been attracted to the more older/wiser men.

Answer 6

I think it's alright as long as both are mature enough to handle the relationship. Been there (younger woman).

Answer 9

Answer 10
